Comments on the clue
1.All very obscure & 'captured pollock's back' is weak wordplay
2.'for' in a hidden clue not ok; using all letters as is (though reversed) not so appealing, and can't see the last letter deletion
3.Surface is unweildy
4.Educational clue!
5.The two clues here are separated by the colon.
